If you grew up eating french toast on the weekends as a special treat, you’ll know what a treat it is. If you’re vegan there’s no reason to miss out – I prefer this version to the non-vegan version too. It’s also ideal if you have some bread that’s a little past its best as you won’t be able to tell at all with this! Perfect with mixed berries and maple syrup on top 🙂

Ingredients:

• 1tbsp maple syrup
• 240ml almond milk
• 1tsp ground cinnamon
• 5 slices bread (sourdough works well – not too soft)
• Coconut oil
• Toppings of choice (works well with anything you’d usually put on pancakes)

Method:

• Mix all the ingredients except the bread in a mixing bowl
• Heat a tsp coconut oil in a frying or griddle pan
• Dip the bread slices in the mixture for a couple of seconds – you don’t want them totally drenched
• Once the pan is hot (before the oil burns) place the slices of bread in and cook until browning on one side (around 3 minutes in a hot pan)
• Using a spatula, flip the bread to cook the other side
• Top with desired toppings and serve up!
